Overview

This 6.5 mile walk from Great Abington is a pleasant loop which starts along the edge of the village cricket fields before joining Chalky Lane. We make our way through expansive wheat fields before reaching Little Linton. We traverse the bridge across the River Granta in Hildersham before heading back to Great Abington for (optional) Thai lunch at The Three Tuns pub.

Because the pub closes at 2:00 pm, the walk will commence at 9:45 am to make sure we are back in good time. Please plan to arrive in plenty of time to order food before we leave.
